To provide for the growth, support and enrichment of the Adult Faith Ministry members of Our Lady of the Lake Parish. Through a variety of Adult Faith formation and enrichment opportunities, Retreats and Marriage Preparation, we minister to one another, enabling each member of the parish to realize his/her call to holiness and service, within the context of a supportive Christian community.
Held every year in late Summer and Winter.
Next session begins Wednesday, October 11, 2006 at the Corpus Christi Center from 6:30-8:00 pm and runs the next four Wednesdays. See Bulletin for topics or pick up a flyer in the kiosk.
R.C.I.A. (Rites of Christian Initiation for Adults)-The process by which adults become members of the Roman Catholic Church.
The inquirers in RCIA are asking challenging questions. Could you answer them? What does “liturgy” mean? Are people that don’t believe in Jesus Christ going to heaven? There’s a great book in the library called, “Why do Catholics?” It has wonderful short responses to many of questions that inquirers want to know. It is also good for Catholics who wonder the same things. Know anyone who is considering joining us? It’s not too late to start. We meet Thursdays at 7PM in the A/B room at church. Contact Mary Wernet in the office.
